Greetings All,
I'm experiencing some issues with Initial boot from BIOS > Clover (Loading User Profile etc etc...)
The whole boot sequence into MAC Login screen is about 8 minutes.
Upon research, I've found there was some issues regarding the ephemeral drives that are coming up
( https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...boot-entries-prevent-further-problems.175274/)
The signs where all there, such as it was quite fast and then it slowed down.
When I checked, there was a bunch of drives so I removed them to ensure only the two physical drives were there.
After doing this, it still seems to take time after the BIOS > Clover Loading Screen "Test Hardware", "User Settings" and "Scan Entries" (At least a few minutes here)
When this process completes, it's actually quite fast to boot into the OS.
Any ideas on what this could be ?
There is also a secondary HDD plugged in with a Clover folder sitting in /.
As a test, I've unplugged that drive to see if that was causing any issues but still the same.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
I've attached my Clover folder for analysis
My Specs:
ASUS H97M-E
MacOS Mojave
16GB DDR3
RADEON RX 580 8GB
Intel Xeon CPU E3-1231 v3 @ 3.4GHZ
Samsung SSD 978 EVO Plus 1TB (NVMe)
